If the purpose of the board is to help why are you trying to sound technical? Yes,when a carb with to many cfms is installed on an engine jetting up is the fix but only makes someone thing the carb was not big enough to start with! It starts a cycle of bigger is better or needed!

I completely agree with you... Although it feels strange.

I don't think that my posts are too difficult to understand. Didn't I get the point across that a high-rpm engine can easily use more CFM than the basic 4-stroke airflow equation would suggest?

Prob not to the ones not use to that terminology. Some of the best advice I was given was"explain things so that a child can understand it". Less confusion developes that way and most people will feel ashamed to ask for clarification.

I agree. When talking on a forum never assume. The person that you are replying to may be awesome in a shop, but have poor reading comprehension.

I never passed an english class with anything higher that a C. In automotive I always got A's. I also got A's in math. Thats why i use equations and formulas to solve most of my problems.

Yep, math has simple rules that do not change. English on the other hand.....

Back on topic; One way to resolve the cfm vs fuel is to dump the carb and go fuel injected. Let the computer make minor adjustments while the engine is running to optimize the proper fuel flow for the given load.
